Two Under 2... 4 weeks early!!

ivyreb · September 2011

I'm officially in! Our son, Cole, was born last Sunday, a super fast and amazingly easy and UNEXPECTED labor, 4 weeks early!

He was born 7lbs 5oz (he probably would have been over 9lbs if he went to term), and everything is pretty great! For 4 weeks early he had a slightly high bilirubin #, so we were in the hospital a couple extra days for light treatment and now we're home w/ a bili blanket, but otherwise all is good.

The bili blanket sucks because he has to be in a bassinet, wrapped in it (for light treatment) all the time, unless he's feeding, but in a way it's been great for DD because we're not holding him all the time, and she's still getting lots of attention. She thinks he's hilarious, and likes to wave at him. She also uses a small bottle to feed her doll, and we put a diaper of Cole's on the doll, and Ruby thinks that's hilarious, too.

So far so good...
